After he said those words to her, the door creaked open, and standing outside the door was the princess of Lu Guo whom she had just abused.

Her expression was solemn, and she walked in with heavy steps.

Her gaze collided with Yu Jing's, and after staring at each other for a long time, she finally let out a shallow, disdainful sneer.

"You!" Xu Yujing stared at her smile, already feeling the obvious ridicule from the other party.

From the very beginning, she had her eyes on her! What kneeling at the gate of the palace, what longing for peace, everything was an illusion she made in order to calculate her!

Her purpose is fake, her gift list is fake, and perhaps, even her identity is fake!

Xu Yujing glared at her, and saw Chu Ping saluting her very respectfully.

"Princess." Chu Ping's waist was arched very low: "Everything has been done according to the princess's wishes." ”

She slowly walked to Chu Ping's side, also with her hands behind her back, and suddenly she turned her head to look at Xu Yujing, and sneered.

"Lord Chu, you are too rough with Second Miss." She said.

Chu Ping straightened up, glanced at Princess Lu Guo, and then looked at Xu Yujing.

"What did the princess say?" He asked rhetorically.

Princess Lu Guo looked indifferently at the lonely snowdrops outside the window, and said softly: "Second Miss's clothes have been torn by you, but you have not prepared a change of clothes for her, this is not enough for a gentleman." ”

Chu Ping smiled heartily, opened an orchid package on the table by the window, which contained a set of women's dresses, he hugged the stack of clothes, slowly walked to Yujing's side, and stuffed the dress into Xu Yujing's arms.

He whispered, "Put it on." ”

Xu Yujing looked at him with red eyes, and stubbornly turned her face away.

He was patient, and said to her, "Put it on, or you'll freeze." ”

Xu Yujing still ignored it.

At last he took a thin cotton jacket and draped it over her: "Do you want to go back in tattered clothes like this?" ”

Princess Lu Guo also turned her head: "Yes, Second Miss, you can't get frostbitten, you have to go into the palace to meet Concubine Chen tomorrow." ”

What the? Xu Yujing looked at her suspiciously, she didn't even know about meeting Concubine Chen, why did this princess of Lu Guo come with her mouth open?

"My mother didn't let me go." Yu Jing said coldly.

"But I need you to go." Princess Lu Guo tilted her head to look at her: "You said that you would take this princess to see Concubine Chen." ”

"Then it depends on the hour," Yu Jing narrowed her eyes: "I'm not feeling well now, and I'm not feeling well tomorrow." With such a complexion of mine, even if I want to see Concubine Chen, the palace will not agree. ”

"That's not a problem." Princess Lu Guo laughed contemptuously: "I don't care what reason you use, anyway, I will wait for you on this road tomorrow, and besides, you'd better find a way to block your maid's mouth, otherwise you will wait to dip the pig cage Second Miss." ”

Yu Jing pondered for a long time, and finally, two cold tears slowly slid down her cheeks.

"I can gag everybody." She whispered, "But I can't do it alone." ”

Princess Lu Guo raised her eyebrows: "So, I'm going to give you an assistant?" ”

Yu Jing looked to the side sadly, and said resolutely: "The gift list you promised me must be counted. ”

"Okay." Princess Lu Guo glanced at Chu Ping and finally nodded.

As a last resort, she could only change into that thin dress and walk alone on the long street. For the first time, she felt that the road was so long, it was already dark, and there would be a curfew in another hour, and I was afraid that no pedestrians would be found anywhere except in the lively West and East markets.

Her body was in pain, and she didn't know how she walked home in such a situation. She only remembered that when she returned to Xu's Mansion, a red lantern had been lit at the gate of the courtyard, and several family members were waiting anxiously.

Seeing her come back, the family members hurriedly greeted her: "Second Miss, where have you been Second Miss?" Madame and old lady are in a hurry! ”

She was surrounded by a group of maids and walked into the house, and some family members hurriedly went to the Xu family's mother's room to return. By the time the Xu family's housewife arrived at Xu Yujing's room, she had already fallen asleep.

The mother of the Xu family was stunned for a long time, and finally did not wake her up, but only instructed the maids around her: "You are so good to serve Miss, as soon as she wakes up, call her to see me immediately." ”

It was an extremely short, but long dream, and Chu Ping's terrifying face flashed in front of her eyes frequently, like a terrifying ghost, surrounding her.

He was rude, and he covered her with wounds, and the red marks were all over her body, even on her face, on the backs of her hands, on her neck, everywhere, but more and more, more and more densely. She saw Mrs. Xu exclaiming at her, oh my God, Yujing, how dare you be so presumptuous and do such a humiliating thing with a wild man! You are really insulting to the Xu family!

At the end of the dream, there were only four words left in her ears.

She suddenly woke up, there was still a light in the room that had not been extinguished, and she had carefully examined the scars on her body, but fortunately, there was no bare outside her clothes. She was still wearing the same dress she had worn when she came home, suggesting that no one had examined her body.

It was now the fifth watch of the second day, and she woke up, and she consciously knelt in the courtyard of Mrs. Xu without being reminded by the maid.

Mrs. Xu has always woken up early, but she is earlier than Mrs. Xu today. Until Madame woke up and called her in, she knelt there, motionless, like a stone statue.

When she came back late yesterday, she wore another set of clothes that did not belong to the Xu family, which was difficult not to suspect.

Mrs. Xu also felt that there were ghosts in it, after all, Xu Yujing's biological mother was an indecent little hoof, if it weren't for her nature*, she would not have climbed into Xu Yongchang's bed, let alone give birth to Xu Yujing, a cheap girl.

Every time she saw Xu Yujing, she was angry. Her own daughter Yuyin has already died, although the emperor ordered the construction of a mausoleum and gave a monument of merit, but these still cannot make up for the pain caused by Yuyin's death.

Why, she knows that the righteous and beautiful Yuyin can't be kept for a long time, why does this unruly, wild and untamable Yujing live so well?

But now, she has become Xu Yujing's mother-in-law, even if she is angry in her heart, she can't just mess around, she tries to suppress the annoyance in her heart and stare at Yujing.

"What did you do yesterday?"

Yujing didn't speak, just knelt in front of her calmly.

The Xu family's housewife was obviously annoyed by Xu Yujing's unruly attitude, she glared at her and slapped the table: "Why don't you speak?" Whose clothes are you wearing? The daughter of a dignified family, how can she wear other people's clothes casually? What do you look at? It's like a rich businesswoman! How can there be a little bit of a young lady's demeanor? ”

Yu Jing was silent for a long time, and finally raised her head and looked at her with a cold look to the bone: "Mother, Yu Jing didn't do anything indecent, but went to share her father's worries." ”

The mother of the Xu family was immediately stunned: "What did you say?" Do you share your father's sorrows? ”

She almost heard the most ridiculous joke in the world, a poor village woman who had never seen the world could share the worries of the generals on the border of the Great Qi.

"Yes," Yu Jing's eyes were still indifferent: "A few days ago, I heard from my mother that my father was embarrassed about building a three-bow bed crossbow, but now my father doesn't have to be embarrassed, Yu Jing has a way to get a thousand three-bow bed crossbows for my father." ”

The housewife of the Xu family stared at her, almost choking to death by a sip of tea, and several servant women around her also covered their mouths and laughed.

"It's a dream." She shook her head: "I'll just say, this girl who has never seen the world is not worthy of entering the palace, you see, before entering the palace, she said crazy things." ”

"It's not crazy, it's true." Xu Yu Jingjing stood up and took out the gift slip given by Princess Lu Guo from her sleeve.

Mrs. Xu looked at the few servants beside her in astonishment, and only after a while did she ask, "Did you go to meet those Lu Guoren yesterday?" ”

Yujing nodded.

"Those Lu people are despicable and shameless, how can you believe their words?" Mrs. Xu stood up sharply.

Xu Yujing lowered her eyelids slightly, she had already learned the despicability and shamelessness of the Lu people, and she didn't need to be reminded by Mrs. Xu.

She threw the gift slip on the table beside Mrs. Xu: "Lu Guoren is despicable or not to put it aside, mother think about it, the emperor ordered my father to build a three-bow bed crossbow, but my father still has no clue." If the work cannot be delivered on time, and the emperor condemns the crime, can our family afford it? This is the only way to solve the urgent need, and if my mother doesn't agree, I will refuse them. ”

She said, really turning and walking out. didn't take a few steps before he was stopped by Mrs. Xu.

She turned back: "What else does Mother command?" ”

Mrs. Xu beckoned to her: "Can they really help your father get a thousand three-bow bed crossbows?" ”

Xu Yujing nodded: "Lu Guoren has already agreed, as long as we help them facilitate peace talks, they will immediately send professional weapon craftsmen to Beihan to help my father build a bed crossbow." ”

The attitude of the Xu family's housewife also hesitated, perhaps, this is really a good opportunity for the Xu family?

"But the emperor is against peace talks." A grandmother behind Mrs. Xu said.

"That's the matter of the emperor and Lu Guo, we are just beating the side drum, why is it difficult? Moreover, the peace talks between the two countries are beneficial and harmless to the common people. Xu Yujing stared at Mrs. Xu: "This is a sure-fire deal, why wouldn't my mother do it?" ”

Mrs. Xu exhaled a long breath and looked at Xu Yujing: "What kind of facilitation?" ”

Xu Yujing was slightly self-conscious, and said indifferently: "Princess Lu Guo wants to meet Concubine Chen, so Yujing only needs to take her into the palace under the guise of visiting Concubine Chen, and our mission will be over." ”

"It's as simple as that?" Mrs. Xu looked at her in surprise.

"It's as simple as that." Xu Yujing said firmly.

"Okay, let me think about it first." Mrs. Xu sat down hesitantly.

"With all due respect," Xu Yujing suddenly interrupted her thoughts: "The emperor is attacking Lu Guo very fiercely, Princess Lu Guo wants to see Concubine Chen immediately, she has already set a time with her daughter to enter the palace." ”

Mrs. Xu looked up at her: "When?" ”

"It's today." She was right.
